WAR And PEACE
idiolect:
Hey UberRitter, just out of curiosity, what school do you / your friend go to?
Also, with regards to the OP -- I haven't gotten around to reading War and Peace yet, mostly because I haven't really had the time to focus on it the way I'd need to. I've liked some of Tolstoy's other stuff though, and generally really like that period of Russian literature, and having a whole semester's worth of class on War and Peace sounds pretty excellent to me :-)
Uber Ritter:
St John's College Annapolis. The Great Books school, not the basketball one.
4 years of dead white men and a rather pricey preparation for grad school but I love it so.
idiolect:
Ha! Wow. Well hi, I just finished a draft of my junior essay.
I can't decide whether this is awkward or awesome. Probably both.
For perhaps even more awkwardness: Were you in the Wittgenstein precept?
TheFuriousWombat:
I've heard very mixed things about these translators. My Russian Lit professor at the moment dislikes them for Dostoevsky and Gogol but is ok with them for Tolstoy for some reason.
Uber Ritter:
Yes. Hello Becca?
This is Will.
